  1. Transfer lab group users, lab databases, and lab group roles from the old Viewpoint system to the new/same Viewpoint system.
    If the migration is happening between same Teradata systems, ignore this step.

    2. On the source Viewpoint system:

  2. Run the following command to shut down the DCS from the active cache database server:
    /etc/init.d/dcs stop
  3. Run the following dcsadmin command:
    /opt/teradata/viewpoint/dcs/bin/dcsadmin.sh
  4. Type help to find the exportdatalabs command.
  5. Run the exportdatalabs command.
  6. Select the source system.
  7. Verify the output to make sure the export is successful.
    Look for the Datalabs exported to tmp folder. For example, Data labs is exported to : /tmp/datalabs_Jo_TD_1720_1650361525765.json
